IMPORTANTSAFETYINSTRUCTIONS
Your safety is important to us.
This guide contains safety symbols and
statements. Please pay special attention to
these symbols and follow any instructions
given. Here is a brief explanation of the use
of the symbol.
General
This symbol alerts you to
hazards such as fire,
electrical shock, or
other injuries.
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical
shock, injury to persons, or damage
when using the range, follow basic
precautions, including the following:
Read all instructions before using
the range.
Install or locate the range only
in accordance with the provided
Installation Instructions. The
range must be installed by a
qualified installer. The range must
be properly connected to electri-
cal supply and grounded.
WARNING: To reduce the risk
of tipping the appliance, the
appliance must be secured by a
properly installed anti-tip bracket.
To check if the bracket is installed
properly, see "The anti-tip bracket"
on page 10.
CAUTION: Do not siore things
children might want above the
range. Children could be burned
or injured while climbing on it.
Do not leave children alone or
unattended in area where the
range is in use. They should
never be allowed to sit or stand
on any part of the range. They
could be burned or injured.
Do not use the range for warming
or heating the room. Persons could
be burned or injured, or a fire could
start.
Use the range only for its intended
use as described in this manual.
Do not touch surface units, areas
near units, heating elements, or
interior surfaces of oven. Surface
units and heating elements may
be hot even though they are dark
in color. Areas near surface units
and interior surfaces of an oven be-
come hot enough to cause burns.
During and after use, do not touch,
or let clothing or other flammable
materials contact surface units,
areas near units, heating elements,
or interior surfaces of oven until
they have had sufficient time to
cool. Other surfaces of the range,
such as the oven vent opening, the
surface near the vent opening, the
cooktop, and the oven door and
window, could also become hot
enough to cause burns.
background
nge Safety
*Do not operate the range if it is
damaged or not working properly.
oDo not wear loose or hanging
garments when using the range.
They could ignite if they touch a
hot surface unit and you could
be burned.
*Use only dry pot holders. Moist or
damp pot holders on hot surfaces
could result in burns from steam.
Do not let pot holder touch hot
heating elements. Do not use a
towel or bulky cloth for a pot
holder. It could catch on fire.
*Keep range vents unobstructed.
*Do not heat unopened containers.
They could explode. The hot
contents could cause burns and
container particles could cause
injury.
.Use only cookware approved for
oven use. Follow cookware manu-
facturer's instructions, especially
when using glass or plastic
cookware.
.Do not store flammable materials
on or near the range. The fumes
could create an explosion and/or
fire hazard.
*Do not repair or replace any part
of the range unless specifically
recommended in this manual. All
other servicing should be referred
to a qualified technician.
oDisconnect the electrical supply
before servicing the range.
When using the cooktop
.Do not cook on a broken ceramic
glass cooktop. If cooktop should
break, cleaning solutions and
spillovers could penetrate the
broken cooktop and create a risk
of electrical shock. Contact a
qualified technician immediately.
*Select a pan with a flat bottom
that is about the same size as the
surface unit. If pan is smaller than
the surface unit, some of the
heating element will be exposed
and could result in the igniting of
clothing or pot holders. Correct
pan size also improves cooking
efficiency.
*Check to be sure glass cookware
is safe for use on the range. Only
certain types of glass, glass-
ceramic, ceramic, earthenware,
or other glazed cookware are
suitable for cooktops without
breaking due to the sudden
change in temperature.
*Never leave surface units un-
attended at high heat settings.
A boilover could result and cause
smoking and greasy spillovers
that could ignite.
oTurn pan handles inward, but not
over other surface units. This will
help reduce the chance of burns,
igniting of flammable materials,
and spills due to bumping of
the pan.

background
_ange Safety
*Grease is flammable. Do not
allow grease to collect around
cooktop or in vents. Wipe spill-
overs immediately.
*Do not use water on grease fires.
Never pick up a flaming pan.
Smother flaming pan on range
by covering with a well-fitting lid,
cookie sheet, or flat tray. Flaming
grease outside of pan can be
extinguished with baking soda
or, if available, a multipurpose
dry chemical or foam-type
extinguisher.
*Clean ceramic glass cooktop
with care. Some cleaners could
produce noxious fumes if applied
to a hot surface. If a wet paper
towel is used to wipe spills on a
hot cooking area, be careful to
avoid steam burns.
When using the oven
Always position oven rack(s) in
desired location while oven is
cool. If a rack must be removed
while oven is hot, do not let pot
holder contact hot heating ele-
ments in oven.
Use care when opening oven door.
Let hot air or steam escape before
removing or replacing food.
*Small amounts of formaldehyde
and carbon monoxide are given
off in the Self-Cleaning cycle from
fiberglass insulation and food
decomposition. Significant expo-
sure to these substances could
cause cancer or reproductive
harm. Exposure can be minimized
by venting with a hood or open
window and wiping out excess
food spills prior to self-cleaning.
Do not use oven cleaners. No
commercial oven cleaner or oven
liner protective coating of any kind
should be used in or around any
part of the oven.
*Before self-cleaning the oven,
remove broiler pan, broiler grid,
oven racks, and other cookware.
Do not use your oven to clean
miscellaneous parts unless you
are instructed to do so in this Use
and Care Guide.
Do not clean door gasket. It is
essential for a good seal. Care
should be taken not to rub, dam-
age, or move the gasket. Clean
only parts recommended in this
Use and Care Guide.

Using and Caring for Your Cooktop
Using the dual-size surface unit
(some models)
You can use the right rear surface unit as
either a small diameter, lower wattage
element or large diameter, full wattage
element.
Use both element_
for larger pans
Use small element
for smaller pans
To use the small element
(for smaller pans):
Push in and turn the control knob to the
left (counterclockwise) to the desired
setting in the area marked "SINGLE".
To use both elements
(for larger pans):
Push in and turn the control knob to the
right (clockwise) to the desired setting in
the area marked "DUAL".
NOTE: You can turn the control knob in
either direction to reach "OFF".
The ceramic glass cooktop
Standard Hot surface Halogen
elements indicator elements
lights (some
models)
Cooking on the ceramic glass cooktop is
almost the same as cooking on coil surface
units. There are, however, a few differences:
The cooking surface area willglow red
when the element is turned on. You will
see the element cycling on and off- even
on the HI setting - to help the area stay at
the temperature setting you choose.
Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans
are clean and dry before cooking. Food
and water particles lefton the bottoms can
leave deposits on the cooktop when it is
heated.
Wiping off the cooktop before and after
each use will help keep the surface free
from stains and give you the most even
heating. See pages 14 and 15 for care
and cleaning suggestions.
Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop.
Lift pots and pans onto and off of the
cooktop. Sliding pots and pans on the
cooktop could leave marks that are difficult
to remove or could leave permanent marks.
Do not cook popcorn that comes in
prepackaged aluminum containers on the
cooktop. The container could leave alumi-
num marks on the cooktop that cannot be
removed completely.
12
background
' sing and Caring for Your Cooktop
Do not use the cooktop as a cutting
board.
Do not allow anything that could melt,
such as plastic or aluminum foil, to come
in contact with the cooktop while it is hot.
Dropping a heavy or hard object on the
cooktop could crack it. Be careful when
using heavy skillets and large pots. Do
not store jars or cans above the cooktop.
Sugary spills and soils can cause pitting.
See page 15 for more information.
Cookware tips
Select a pan that is about the same size
as the surface unit.
},
NOTE: For best results and greater
energy efficiency, use only flat-bottomed
cookware that makes good contact with
the surface units. Cookware with rounded,
warped, ribbed (such as some porcelain
enamelware), or dented bottoms could
cause uneven heating and poor cooking
results.
You can, however, use the newer
cookware available with slightlyindented
bottoms or very small expansion channels.
This cookware isspecially designed to
provide the good contact needed for best
cooking results.
Also, woks, canners, and teakettles
with flat bottoms suitable for use on your
cooktop are now available in most stbres
that sell housewares.
The pan should have straight sides and
a tight-fitting lid.
Choose medium to heavy gauge (thick-
ness) pans that are fairly lightweight.
The pan material (metal or glass) affects
how fast heat transfers from the surface
unit through the pan material and how
evenly heat spreads over the pan bottom.
Choose pans that provide the best cooking
results.
Handles should be made of sturdy, heat-
resistant material and be securely attached
to the pan.
With your hand, feel the bottom of your
pans while they are cool for nicks and
scratches. Nicks and scratches on pan
bottoms will scratch the ceramic glass
cooktop.
Make sure bottoms of pans are clean and
dry before using on cooktop.
Avoid spillovers on cooktop. Use pans
with tall sides.
Do not cook food directly on cooktop.
NOTE: Do not leave empty cookware, or
cookware which has boiled dry, on a hot
surface unit. The cookware could overheat
and damage the cookware or surface unit.
Home canning information
I Centerov__ Pan
I .._.,_ u..
I | Surface
unit
Use the largest surface unit for best
results. Also, use a canner/pan which
can be centered over the surface unit.
Start with hot water. This reduces the
time the control is set on high. Reduce
heat setting to lowest position needed
to keep water boiling.
Refer to your canner manual for specific
instructions.

Using and Caring for Your Cooktop
Caring for your cooktop
This cooktop is designed for easy care.
However, ceramic glass cooktops need
to be maintained differently than standard
electric coil elements. Foods spilled directly
on the cooktop will not burn off as on coil
elements. Because of this, the surface
should be dust-free and soil-free before
heating.
%
To avoid damaging the cooktop, follow
these instructions:
Remove sugar spills and soils from the
cooktop while the surface is still warm to
avoid pitting on the surface.
Marks from sliding metal pans on the
cooktop are difficult to remove completely.
Use cooktop polishing creme to clean
the area. Several applications may be
necessary.
Do not use steel wool, plastic cleaning
pads, abrasive powdered cleansers,
chlorine bleach, rust remover, ammonia,
or glass cleaning products with ammonia.
These products could damage the cooktop
surface.
Your cooktop has been prepolished at
the factory for improved protection and
cleanability. The Cooktop Polishing Creme,
a paper towel or a sponge, and a single-
edge razor blade in a holder is all you need
to clean your cooktop. For proper cleaning
methods, please review the chart on page
15. Follow this chart after each use to
ensure top performance and to preserve
that uniquely elegant look.
NOTE: Let cooktop cool before cleaning.

Cleaning steps:
1. Most spills (except sugary spills and
soils - see chart on this page) can be
wiped off easily using a paper towel or
clean, damp sponge as soon as Hot
Surface Indicator Light(s) goes off.
2. For stubborn spills, rub Cooktop Polish-
ing Creme into cooked-on soil using a
paper towel. If some soil remains, leave
some creme on the spot(s) and follow
Step 3.
3. Carefully scrape spots with a single-
edge razor blade in a holder.
4. Finish by polishing entire cooktop
with Cooktop Polishing Creme and a
paper towel.
To order Cooktop Polishing Creme
(Part No. 3184477), call 1-800-422-1230
and follow the instructions and telephone
prompts you hear.
How to keep your cooktop
looking like new:
IF THERE ARE WHAT TO DO
Sugary spills
and soils (such
as jellies and
candy syrups)
To prevent pitting on
the cooktop, wipe up
with a paper towel or
clean, damp sponge
while ceramic glass
surface is still warm.
Remove as soon as
possible after spill
occurs.
Dark streaks,
specks, and
discoloration
Metal marks
(from copper or
aluminum pans)
Use Cooktop
Polishing Creme or
nonabrasive cleanser
with a damp paper
towel or sponge.
Use Cooktop Polishing
Creme or nonabrasive
cleanser with a damp
paper towel or sponge
before heating the
cooktop again. If
heated before clean-
ing, metal marks may
not come off.
Tiny scratches
or abrasions
Scratches and abra-
sions do not affect
cooking. In time, they
will become less
visible as a result of
cleaning. To prevent
scratches and abra-
sions, use Cooktop
Polishing Creme
regularly.
NOTE: Always wipe and dry your cooktop
thoroughly after using cleanser to prevent
streaking or staining.

Cooking tips
Baking/convection baking tips
The hot air must circulate around the pans
in the oven for even heat to reach all parts
of the oven. This results in better baking.
For best air circulation:
* Place the pans so that one is not directly
over the other.
Mdlorl 11/,._2 _ _ _ 41/,, -_- Iwallor
o_J'ler ,-_ -L J_ -L other
panl Ipen
For best results, allow 11/2to 2 inches of
space around each pan and between pans
and oven walls.
When baking with one pan, place pan in
the center of the oven rack.
Rack positions
®
Your oven has three straight racks and five
rack positions. Rack position 5 is the highest
position, or farthest from the bottom of the
oven. Rack position 1 is the lowest position,
or closest to the bottom of the oven.
When baking with two pans, place pans
in opposite corners of the oven rack.
NOTES:
"Oven peeking" may cause heat loss,
longer cooking times, and unsatisfactory
baking or roasting results. Rely on your
timer.
Do not allow pans to touch the heat
sensor on the left wall near the back.
Poor baking may result.

rU sing and Caring for Your Oven
Baking tips
(Bake pad)
For proper cooking, follow these
guidelines:
When using one rack, place the rack so
the top of the food will be centered in
the oven.
When using more than one rack, use the
Convection Bake setting.
Use only one cookie sheet in the oven at
a time when using the Bake setting.
Bakeware tips
When baking with insulated cookie
sheets or baking pans, place them in the
bottom third of the oven. You may need to
increase the recommended baking times,
so test for doneness before removing
from the oven.
When using ovenproof glassware or
dark bakeware, reduce the oven tempera-
ture by 25°F, but use the same baking
time. Because these pans absorb heat,
producing darker bottom browning and
crispier crusts, place the rack in the center
of the oven. When baking pies and bread,
you can use the temperature suggested in
the recipe.
Rack placement for specific foods:
(For rack positions, see "Rack positions" on
page 27.)
RACK
FOOD POSITION
Frozen pies 2
Angel food and bundt cakes,
most quick breads, yeast 1 or 2
breads, casseroles, meats
Cookies, biscuits, muffins, 2 or 3
cakes, nonfrozen pies
NOTE: For additional baking tips see
"Baking or convection baking" on page 24.
Using aluminum foil in the oven
[forthermal baking)
Use aluminum foil to catch spillovers from
pies or casseroles.
* Place the foil on the oven rack below the
rack with the food. Turn foil edges up and
make sure foil is about 1 inch (3 cm) larger
all around than the dish holding the food.
,, Do not cover the entire rack with alumi-
num foil. It will reduce air circulation and
cause poor cooking results.
Do not line oven bottom or entire oven
rack with foil or other liners. Itcould affect
the quality of your baking.
28
background
Using and Caring for Your Oven
Convection baking tips
(Convection Bake pad)
Do not use aluminum foil when convection
baking. Aluminum foil may block airflow.
Reduce recommended recipe oven
temperature by approximately 25°F. See
recipe adaption chart in your convection
oven cookbook for recommended
temperatures, or use EASY CONVECT*
Conversion (see page 36).
For most recipes, you can reduce con-
vection baking time compared to standard
baking times. See recipe adaption chart or
convection baking chart in your convection
oven cookbook for recommended
baking times, or use EASY CONVECT
Conversion (see page 36).
NOTE: Cooking time may be longer when
you use more than one rack.
When baking on two or three racks, use
the Convection Bake setting for more even
results. (You can, however, use only one
rack when Convection Baking.)
To use three racks during convection
baking, place one rack in position 5 (the
highest position), another rack in position
1 (the closest to the oven bottom), and the
third rack in position 3, This allows all three
racks to be an equal distance apart for
better baking.
Stagger cake pans or other cookware in
opposite directions on each rack when
three racks are used.
NOTE: For additional convection baking tips
see "Baking or convection baking" on
page 24.
Roasting tips
Spatter can be reduced by lining the
bottom of the roasting pan with lightly
crushed aluminum foil.
Use an accurate meat thermometer or
temperature probe (see page 31) to
determine when meat has reached desired
degree of doneness. Insert the thermom-
eter or probe into the center of the thickest
portion of the meat or inner thigh or breast
of poultry. For an accurate reading, the tip
of the thermometer or probe should not
touch fat, bone, or gristle.
After reading the thermometer once,
push it further into the meat 1/2inch or
more and read again. If the temperature
drops, return the meat to the oven for
more cooking.
Check pork and poultry with a ther-
mometer in two to three places to ensure
adequate aloneness.
Poultry and roasts will be easier to
carve ff loosely covered with foil and
allowed to stand 10-15 minutes after
removal from the oven.
You can reduce roastingtimes and
temperatures for most standard recipes
when using the Convection Roast setting.
See recipe adaption chart or convection
masting chart in your convection oven
cookbook for recommended roasting
times and temperatures, or use
EASY CONVECT Conversion (see
page 36).
Use the convection roasting rack on the
broiler pan (both included with your range).
(The convection roasting rack rests on the
broiler pan, not inside it.) The long side of
the rack should be parallel with the oven
door for best heat distributionand airflow.

Adjusting oven temperature
Although your new oven is properly adjusted
to provide accurate temperatures, it may
cook faster or slower than your old oven.
If, after using the oven for a period of time,
you are not satisfied with the baking/roasting
results, you can change the offset tempera-
ture by following the steps below. The control
will "remember" the selected offset even after
the power has been interrupted or lost.
NOTE: DO NOT measure oven temperature
with a thermometer. Opening the oven door
will lower the oven temperature and give
you an inaccurate reading. Also, the thermo-
meter temperature reading will change as
your oven cycles.

Using the temperature probe
The Temperature Probe is the most
accurate guide to the degree of
doneness of meat. Use it when baking,
roasting any type of meat or poultry, or
cooking casseroles with liquid.
NOTES:
Do not use the Temperature Probe when
broiling, convection broiling,dehydrating,
or raising bread.
Unplug the Temperature Probe before
self-cleaning the oven.
1. Insert probe into food.
Insert the probe intothe center of the
thickest portion of meat or intothe inner
thigh or breast of poultry, away from fat
or bone.
2. Put food in oven.
Place meat on the convection roasting
rack, place rack on broiler pan, and place
pan in the center of.the oven.

Variable temperature broiling
If food is cooking too fast or you want
the food to broilslower from the start, set
the broil temperature between 170°F and
325°F. These temperature settings allow
the broil heating element to cycle and to
slow cooking. The lower the temperature,
the slower the cooking.
Fish and chicken are some foods that
may cook better if you use lower broiling
temperatures.

Convection broiling
Convection broiling is actually
high-temperature convection roasting.
Use this setting when broiling thick cuts of
meat. Results are similar to those you get
when using a rotisserie.
1. Position rack.
See "Thermal broiling chart" on page 42
for recommended rack positions.
2. Put food in oven.
Place food on grid in broiler pan and
place in center of the oven rack. Turn
the pan so the long side is parallel to
the oven door for the most even heat
and the best airflow.
3. Close door.
NOTE: Do not tryto convection broilwith
the door open. The fan will not operate.

Broiling tips
Always start broilingwith a cold broiler
pan for even results.
To retain more natural Juice, do not
pierce meat with a fork.
Trim the outer layer of fatfrom steaks
and chops.
Slit fatty edges to prevent meat from
curling during broiling.
Use a nonstick cooking spray or
vegetable oil on the broiler pan and grid
when broiling fish to prevent sticking.
NOTE: See "Broiling" on page 38 for addi-
tional broiling tips.

Timed cooking
The electronic clock/oven control will turn
the oven on and off at times you set, even
when you are not around.
Delayed time baking/roasting is ideal for
foods which do not require a preheated oven,
such as meats and casseroles. Do not use
delayed time cooking for cakes, cookies,
etc. - they will not rise properly. Before
using timed cooking, make sure the clock
is set to the correct time of day. (See
"Setting the clock" on page 22.)
To start baking/roasting now and
stop automatically:
1, Prepare oven.
Position the oven rack(s) properly and
place the food in the oven. For correct
rack placement, see "Rack positions"on
page 27 and "Rack placement" chart on

("(.]singthe Self-CleaningCycle
The Self-Cleaning cycle saves you from the toil and mess that often come with
hand-cleaning the oven interior. Like the other functions of your oven, you operate
the Self-Cleaning cycle with the easy-to-use electronic control. To use this cycle
properly, follow the step-by-step instructions in this section.
Burn Hazard
Do not touch the oven during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
Keep children away from oven during Self-Cleaning cycle.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners In your oven.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in burns,
or illness from inhaling dangerous fumes.
Before you start
DO NOT
hand-clean
gasket
Hand-clean door
around edge
Before you start the Self-Cleaning cycle,
make sure you:
Hand-clean the areas shown. They
do not get hot enough during the Self-
Cleaning cycle for soil to burn away. Use
hot water and detergent or a soapy, steel-
wool pad for cleaning.
NOTE: DO NOT clean, move, or bend
the gasket. Poor cleaning, baking, and
roasting may result.
Remove the broiler pan and grid and
anything else being stored in the oven.
Wipe out any loose soil or grease. This
will help reduce smoke during the
Self-Cleaning cycle.
Wipe up food spills containing sugar
as soon as possible after the oven cools
down. When sugar is heated to a high
temperature in the Self-Cleaning cycle,
the high temperature can cause the sugar
to burn and react with the porcelain. This
can cause staining and etching or pitting.
Remove the oven racks from the oven if
you want them to remain shiny. You can
clean racks in the Self-Cleaning cycle,
but they willdiscolor and become harder
to slide. If you clean racks in the Self-
Cleaning cycle, place them on the rack
guides.
Heat and odors are normal during the
Self-Cleaning cycle. Keep the kitchen
well ventilated by opening a window or
by turning on a vent hood or other
kitchen vent during the cycle.
NOTES:
Do not block the vent during the Self-
Cleaning cycle. Air must move freely for
best cleaning results.
Do not leave plastic utensils on the
cooktop. They may melt.
Do not leave any foil in oven during the
Self-Cleaning cycle. Foil could burn or
melt and damage the oven surface.
The oven light willnot work during the
Self-Cleaning cycle.
The cooktop will not work during the

For best cleaning results
After the oven cools to room tempera-
ture, wipe up any residue or ash with a
damp cloth or sponge. If any spots remain,
clean with a mild abrasive cleanser or
cleaning sponge.
Clean the oven before it gets heavily
soiled. Cleaning a very soiled oven
takes longer and results in more smoke
than usual.
("DOOR LOCKED" will appear

If the Self-Cleaning cycle does not get
the oven as clean as you expected, the
cycle may not have been set long enough
or you may not have prepared the oven
properly. Set the Self-Cleaning cycle
longer the next time and hand-clean areas
noted on page 51.
How the cycle works
The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high heat
to burn away soil and grease. During the
cycle, the oven gets much hotter than it does
for normal baking or broiling. This high heat £
breaks up the soil or grease and burns it away. "_
Your oven is preset for a 31/2-hourSelf- _.
Cleaning cycle. However, you can adjust the
cycle time to the amount of soil in your oven.
You can set the cycie anywhere between
21/2and 41/2hours. (See "Setting the con-
trols" on page 52.)
The graph at the right is representative of
a normal, 31/2-hourSelf-Cleaning cycle. Note
that the heating stops after 3 hours, but it
takes longer for the oven to cool enough to
unlock.
